Virtual (Not Real) Women Are Created And Used To Mislead People:
It must be very disheartening for people who join Sextsnap.me to meet women, they end up paying for a membership and they have nothing to show for it except a credit card bill. They have no idea that this is not a real dating site. It has all the elements of a legitimate dating service but in the end provides absolutely no possible way to meet real people on this site. The reason being is that the vast majority of profiles on Snap Sext are purposely fake. The profiles are totally falsified. If you look at the profiles they do look authentic but all someone needs to do is take a quick peek at the terms and conditions page to understand exactly what this website is doing.
Manufacturing illegitimate profiles is part of the marketing program of this site. Utilizing made up pretend profiles is how they lure men into buying a paid subscription on their illegitimate online dating service.
Based on their own writings on their terms page they tell everyone that their made up profiles called "Virtual Profiles" are "used to stimulate conversation with users to encourage further and broader participation in the sites services". What that means is that they use these virtual profiles (that they are making up) to get free members to the upgrade page to pay for a membership for the ability to communicate with other members. Communicating with other members includes paying for the privilege of contacting the fake virtual profiles on this site. This is a complete rip-off. And something to note is that all profiles made by Sext Snap use this icon on them ©.
Quick Tip:
The old saying goes if it sounds too good to be true it probably is. This statement could not fit any better with the scenario playing out on this site. If you are receiving large amounts of emails from 20 year old women and you are 40 or, 50 year old man who is overweight and balding do you think this is real? Common sense should tell you this is not the case, use your gut and understand they are trying to play you.
Taken from the terms page section 8.2:
"8.2 Does the Website use virtual or fictitious profiles?
Yes, we do for testing and behavioral/social studies. Some of the user profiles posted on this Website are fictitious, and are associated with our “Virtual Profile” (VP) service. We designate these profiles with a written “VP” on the profile details page. Our VP service is part of our efforts to stimulate conversation with users to encourage further and broader participation in all of our Website’s services, including the posting of additional information or pictures to our users’ profiles. Initial messages from our VP service may be automatically generated with no human involvement, and third-party contractors hired or contracted by us may generate messages or correspondence from then on. The VP service is also intended to proactively monitor user activities and communications to ensure compliance with these terms.
You acknowledge that the information, text, and pictures contained in the VP service profiles do not pertain to any actual person, but are included for entertainment purposes only. Nothing contained in any VP service profile is intended to describe or resemble any real person—living or dead. Any similarity between VP user profile descriptions and any person is purely coincidental.
A single VP may be associated with more than one profile on the Website. You can readily identify and distinguish VP service profiles from user profiles by the VP appearing on each VP profile, and the absence of any “interests” or geographic “location” identifier contained in the VP profile."
Faked Emails That Look Real To The Untrained Eye:
Another main component of using the virtual profiles is to entice male members specifically into paying a subscription fee to communicate with other members on the site. Unfortunately the vast majority of messages on SextSnap are completely fabricated and being sent via computer generating software. These type of automated emails coming from the software programs are very easy to spot. As a rule of thumb if you start receiving large amounts of email messages and instant messages you can rest assured you're not dealing with a legitimate dating service, the chances that a computer software program and not a real person is emailing you is very likely. This is all used in an effort to get you to upgrade your free subscription to a paid one.
Taken from the terms page section 8.2 and 8.3:
"Initial messages from our VP service may be automatically generated with no human involvement, and third-party contractors hired or contracted by us may generate messages or correspondence from then on. On one or more occasions, VP profiles may contact users through computer-generated instant messages or emails to encourage further or broader participation in the Website’s services or to monitor user activity. These messages may be transmitted to multiple recipients at the same time. Messages from VPs will contain the uniform designation “VP” to notify the user that the user has received a message from a VP."
Employees That Are Paid To Act Interested In You:
These people have lots of tricks up their sleeves, another trick they use is to literally hire contractors that are instructed to chat with you and email you so you believe you're interacting with a person whose interested in getting to know you. However in order for you to communicate back and forth with this paid contractor you need to have a full membership which means paying for a membership. This is just another method they use to get money out of your wallet.
Taken from the terms page section 8.3:
"…third-party contractors hired or contracted by us may generate messages or correspondence from then on."

The Judgment:
Sextsnap.me operators run a fraudulent site disguised as a dating service. When you tell people you're offering them a dating service but what you're doing is the exact opposite, that is considered fraud. People are paying for a dating service that doesn't exist. If you want to hold these people accountable contact law enforcement, the FTC, the Better Business Bureau and any other organization that you feel will help stop this ridiculous fraudulent cyber crime.
